it's weird how people notice i am pregnant now when i go outside.
i know i am noticeably pregnant :) but i am just not used to it.

i signed up at the Y. it was only 34.00
good deal.
the pool is indoor and smells way too much of too much chlorine.
i'm not sure what i will do about my hair. i hope it will not wreck my dreads.
i will probbaly cut the yarn i have in my hair shorter because i think the yarn will get yucky and take too long to dry all of the time.
bummer, but i just need to get some excercise. my muscles are in a state of atrophy.
and i need the weight off my back for awhile.
also if i can just paddle around like a frog then this will be good to position the baby better.
she needs to flipa little so she is in a better position for birth.

then i went to a restauraunt and ordered some spaghetti and meatballs to go and headed over to jason's to check up on kiyoshi.
he was really happy to see me and being a little tender bean snuggle muff.
i watched an episode from last's season's top chef on bravo.
they are having a marathon of it because the new season starts tonight.
i do like that show. i wish i had seen the 1st one, as well.
i wish i had cable :( it would be a godsend to me during my pregnancy, especially during these last weeks when i can hardly move.
*sigh* oh well.

it's a beautiful thing to have a smidgen of $ in my bank so i can get things like spaghetti and meatballs and join the Y.
M can even go swimming with me if he wants to which is very cool :)

oh get this..1st thing is some excercise instructor tells me (as i am waiting for them to process my forms) that what i should do for excercise right now is concentrate on my abs because this will help me look great after i give birth!

WTF???
was that even for real??
the LAST thing on earth i want to do is abdominal excercises! i am 8 months pregnant, hello?
my stomache muscles need to STRETCH. i have a BABY in there!
he said that this other pregnnat woman was doing them and you couldn't even tell she had a baby right after because of that.
well good for her. but that has to be one of the last things on earth i would want to do right now with as tight as my stomache is and the braxton hicks contractions i get.

i said, i just want to FLOAT.
get the weight off my back.
i said i am 8 months pregnant and worrying about my freaking abs is really the least of my worries right now!

i wish they made a waterproof ipod because the room with the pool is rather depressing and music would help it.
oh i did see they had a whirlpool in there, too.
if M does not go with me to the Y i hope i will feel comfortable going there by myself.
i just have to do it.
but it brings back bad memories of gym class.

but i will suck it up and deal.



3:26pm

the dogs are at elaine's
m is doing the floors bits at a time when he comes home from work.
i am too pregnant to bend over at all now.
i am going to go join the YMCA because i need to get SOME sort of excercise or i will lose my mind.
and they have a pool.
and that is the only form of excercise that i can think of right now that will get the weight off my back.
it's very hot and humid here.
i got my refund from the cirque tickets so i can afford to go buy a month membership at the Y.
i really hate to even spnd money on something like that,
but i reallllyyyy need a pool.
